[Title] => Wooden-hulled vessels still main means of sea travel in RP
[Summary] => Wooden-hulled vessels like the one that sank in the Philippines last weekend, leaving 55 people feared dead, are often the only trade, transport and communication links for many areas in the archipelagic nation, an official said yesterday.
The 63-ton motor launch Piary, which sank off western Palawan island on Sunday, would not have been allowed to sail if there were any economically viable alternatives, coastguard chief Commodore Arthur Gosingan said.
